“Roasted peppers can be expensive to buy but are very easy to make. When peppers are in abundance, roast some and freeze for later use. One way to do this is in freezer boxes, separating the layers with waxed paper.”
Roast whole peppers under broiler or over a gas flame. Turn frequently, until the skin blackens. Remove from heat and put in a covered pot to allow the peppers to steam and cool. Rub or wash off the blackened skin. Remove the stem and seeds, and use in any recipe calling for roasted peppers, or just on a salad!
